As the lesson points out the verbs aimer que and détester que are followed by the subjunctive mood.
Here is the Kwiziq lesson on how to form the present of the subjunctive -

Embêtiez is in the subjunctive here, to be used after «détester que». For the nous and vous conjugations, it is the same word as for the imparfait.
